For a black one - I don't know what the price will be, nor will I be awake when this launches. If you're in the market, hope you save some $$$

$699.95 is a great price. I'm a little surprised that with only 4 hrs 54 mins left it is showing 0% claimed on the deal. Just purchased a K-3 II on closeout, so I really can't justify a new Kp as well.

Black Friday come early or is the K-3iii about to be released? Interesting pricing the last few weeks. If only I had money for a new camera.

Maybe Amazon just wants to clear some shelf space to make room for the new D-FA 50mm lenses.

It looks tempting but tax takes it up a bit.

I just grabbed my second KP body....$699.....but they charged me about $40 tax on my entire order (I had other items also). Still very much worth it.

They want $56 sales tax here in NY for just the camera, so don't complain too much.

Amazon charges tax on every purchase from a state that has sales tax. It's been that way for a while. Only smaller companies that do not have a physical presence in the state sell tax free, for now. That is all about to change, however.

I still saved $138 after taxes compared to anywhere else at the moment

Thanks Mike, I pulled the trigger, time to update past K-50. I didn't think it would be at this price until 2019. Now I'm sure it will be lower than this by September
